Ingerman, Sandra
Ingerman, Sandra – Neo-shamanic practitioner and author. Ingermanâs most well-known book is Soul Retrieval: Mending the Fragmented Self (1991), outlining the practice of soul retrieval as taught by Michael Harnerâs Foundation for Shamanic Studies, of which she was educational director. She has also written the sequel, Welcome Home: Following Your Soulâs Journey Home, and is the author of a number of other volumes and CDs on neo-shamanic practices, including Shamanic Journeying: A Beginnerâs Guide. Soul retrieval, as it is presented by Ingerman and the foundation, involves visualization, guided meditation, and the healing of psychological ills more than the actual (perceived or otherwise) retrieval of lost souls as in indigenous shamanic contextsâfor example, the Greenlandic angakkoq. Ingerman holds an M.A. in counseling psychology from the California Institute of Integral Studies and teaches workshops on shamanism worldwide.
